Ibn Khaldun is the most important figure in the field of History and Sociology in Muslim History. He is one of those shining stars that contributed so richly to the understanding of Civilization. In order for one to understand and appreciate his work, one must understand his life.
He lived a life in search of stability and influence. He came from a family of scholars and politicians and he intended to live up to both expectations. He would succeed in the field of Scholarship much more so than in any other field.
Here, or you are more familiar with Machiavelli??

And about Muqaddimah, or 'Prolegomena' which identifies the psychological, economic, environmental and social facts that contribute to the advancement of human civilization and the currents of history (in contrast to political context of history). Analyzed the dynamics of group relationships and showed how group feelings, al-'Asabiyya, give rise to the ascent of a new civilization.
Inspired from al-Ghazali, as-Syatibi, Muqaddimah (by Khaldun) and the other sources,
Umer Chapra explained that there are five factors (mentioned as pillar) of society
1. Religion (sharia/ S)
2. Education
3. Law (justice/ j)
4. Economy (growth ( g) and wealth (W))
5. Politics
6. Governance (Government/ G)
7. Social interest (Nation/ N)
8. Culture
All of them influence with one another. At the mean, that when one sector is driven with an huge power toward an advance (to the right way), it moves other sectors also to the right one. Vice versa.
